It is not too early to plan which Caribana events to attend but Saints CaribJam Dance starts it all off and ends with Last Lap Lime http://lastlaplime.com/ on the holiday Monday. BTW, Last Lap Lime tickets will be available at the CaribJam Dance at the bargain price of$10.00. Did I say that the Angels will also be the featured band at Last Lap Lime? Come on out and enjoy the Power of Live Caribbean Music at both events.
